Crazy Idea - Trust Me I Know

Team: 2024-25 Calgary Flames
Initial Creation Date: Jun. 11, 2024

Salary Cap Mode: Basic
Description
Okay, so the play here is Markström gets moved for a Young Centre perhaps in need of a change of scenery and who’s name has been in rumors of being bought out

Andersen has blood clotting issues so you gotta questions how reliable he will be

Would there be a benefit to CAR to unload KK and bring in a more reliable Goaltender and is it worth the risk for CGY to give KK a new opportunity like they did with Sharangovich and a Veteran Goaltender to Mentor Wolf, but have a smaller work load to manage his blood clotting with Vladar as the 3rd Goalie

Is there the basis for a Trade here or would CAR need to add to dump KK or would CGY prefer Jack Drury?

If Andersen can stay Healthy, I’m sure he’d generate a Great Return at the Deadline and if KK rebounds in CGY, that’s a Home Run too

If Flames is on Anderson's trade list......this trade (one of few Markstrom trades)_ makes sense. KK still has easy buyout this June and June 2025 due to age if the Flames decide he isn't worth his cap.

It’s definitely a Gamble = High Risk for Potentially High Reward move on both sides. CAR would also save/open up some more Cap Space

Not a bad trade idea. I'm not sure if I want to trade the KK contract. Young player trajectories can be weird as hell sometimes, especially with larger centers. To me, though, if I'm going to trade him, Markstrom or Blake Coleman aren't bad ideas in the least. A goalie with fantastic metrics on high-danger chances or a veteran guy who famous for greatly elevating his game in the postseason.
